AppleByte is changing its name to ArtByte

[First.Bitcoins]

Over the next few weeks AppleByte, the digital currency supporting artists will be changing its name to ArtByte.


We feel the new name better describes our worldwide purpose, and in fact we bought the domain names for ArtByte when we launched AppleByte.

AppleByte is headquartered in NYC. The name AppleByte was a play on the old saying, "Come to New York and take a bite out of the Big Apple". However, AppleByte has grown considerably and has artists around the world, with a social media following of over 78,000 users. Outside the US, the meaning of the name AppleByte is not as clear.

Additionally, although the name AppleByte is trademark pending, we believe our music download site (currently named the AppleByte Music Store) is a potential conflict with Apple Inc.'s new music streaming site titled, Apple Music.

The trading symbol "ABY" will remain the same.

AppleByte/ArtByte (ABY) is traded on Poloniex and Bittrex

I personally like the name AppleByte. But I understand the need for the change, and ArtByte is more descriptive.
